* Hi dear,
* I’m using Multilingual press plugin to connect each site (TR and EN) and I have
a important issue. My theme developer tried to fix that issue but he couldn’t…
He said ” it’s mostly related to the plugin. ”.
* Check the thread for more information please: [https://themeforest.net/item/writing-blog-personal-blog/11547928/comments?page=22&filter=all#comment_20076643](https://themeforest.net/item/writing-blog-personal-blog/11547928/comments?page=22&filter=all#comment_20076643)
* **Regarding the issue,**
* 1- I create a category named ” SEO Library ” for each language (url: [https://wplibrary.net/category/seo-library](https://wplibrary.net/category/seo-library))
2- I connect these categories via your plugin for Turkish and English. 1- Then,
I create a page that is called ”SEO ”. ( url: [https://wplibrary.net/seo](https://wplibrary.net/seo)
and [https://wplibrary.net/tr/seo](https://wplibrary.net/tr/seo) ) 2- I change
template of this page as ” Blog page ” and select ”show SEO category posts only
on this page ” (check the following image please.) 3- Then, connect these pages
with Multilingual Press plugin for Turkish and English.
* [⌊Ekran Resmi 2018 08 03 14 34 51⌉⌊Ekran Resmi 2018 08 03 14 34 51⌉[
* **Result and issue:** Linkage (language switcher) on the footer redirects visitors
from ” SEO page ” to the **category page** only. But hreflang on the source code
looks correct.
* Example:
go to: [https://wplibrary.net/seo](https://wplibrary.net/seo) and click”
Türkçe ” on the footer. it will redirect you to the category page: [https://wplibrary.net/category/seo-library](https://wplibrary.net/category/seo-library)
* But it should be redirected you to the Turkish page. Not category page.
* As I said before, hreflang looks correct on the SEO page.
``
* Please bro help me!

Additionally information:
* If I change template of the page as ” Default template ” (Not -Blog page-). The
linkage on the footer is working correctly.

* For instance: [https://wplibrary.net/contact-us](https://wplibrary.net/contact-us)(
no problem for this page).
* **I need your help. Could you please fix that issue?**
* **THANK YOU SO MUCH!
Best regards!

* Hi kocakserdar7,
* We don´t know what this theme template (Blog Page) is doing under the hood, we
can not check and see the code because it is a premium theme.
* As a workaround, MultilingualPress (MLP) provides a filter that allows you to
change the value of the URLs (like menu items or language switcher) based on
conditions, for example if the page is SEO you can do a search and replace in
the URL.
* Here is a code snippet that you can add to your theme functions.php and use as
a starting point, you need to adapt it:
* ```
function filter_mlp_linked(
$url,
$target_site_id,
$target_content_id,
Mlp_Translation_Interface $translation
) {
if (!is_page('seo')) {
return $url;
}
if (!is_a($translation, 'Mlp_Translation_Interface')) {
return $url;
}
$source_site_id = $translation->get_source_site_id();
if (!$source_site_id) {
return $url;
}
if (is_page('seo')) {
str_replace(
'/category/seo-library',
'/tr/seo/',
$url
);
}
return $url;
}
add_filter( 'mlp_linked_element_link', 'filter_mlp_linked', 10, 4 );
```
* Thanks,
Emili

* Hello Emili,
* Thank you for your help, I really appreciate it 🙂
* But the code snippet is not working. How can I adapt it? I added it to **functions.
php**, and then **purged all** cache.
* Best regards!

* Hi kocakserdar7,
* We can only provide fixes for bugs in the plugin that can be reproduced in isolation,
so if you can provide us with the steps to reproduce the issue using a default
WordPress theme and with MLP only activated, then we can create an issue and
work on the fix.
* The code snippet we provided you is not a copy/paste solution, you (or you developer)
can use it as a starting point, but it needs to be adapted based on your template
logic.
* Another option you can try is using a Navigation Menu widget with a WordPress
menu, to do so first create a WordPress menu and add MultilingualPress Language
items (you need to check Languages in top right Screen options to see the Language
items), then assign this menu to Navigation Menu widget.
* Thanks,
Emili

* Hi Emili,
* It is fixed by the theme developer. The issue was related to blog page query.
* Thank you for your helps 🙂
Best regards!
